When it was released vs When was it released

Both phrases are correct, but they are used in different contexts. 'When it was released' is used in a sentence where the focus is on the time of release. 'When was it released?' is a question where the subject and verb are inverted. The two phrases are not directly comparable as one is a statement and the other is a question.
